2. Editorial welcome yet again to the best issue of Nexus we have ever done! This issue contains the answers to all the world's food problems, another cure for every known disease, plus an article on someone who could send humanity out amongst the star,s. Ailithis and more for less than the price of a packet of cigarettes! Yes, Iam being flippant-and this is probably because Iam writing tbe editorial now, inste-ad of leaving it to be the last piece Iwrite before deadline! People regularly ask me where we get all the information we publish in Nexus-they often ask if we will ever run out of such news. Well, folks, there ,is no way in the world that Nexus will ever run out of information of the calibre we have been publishing. Thanks to the mainstream media's prostitution of itself to big busi ness interests, we have en,ough info coming in to go for decades. To start with, we get information from every type of group and organisation you can think of, which lis mailed to us-unsolicited. Then rthere is more of the above which we have chased to be mailed to us. Then there are scores of swap-subscriptions with more weird and wonderful pu.blicatiol1s, newsletters and books. .. Then just when I thought I was over:loaded, there are the computer networks! Unless you have a computer and a modem,' you will have no idea how much infor mation is sent around the planet (often several times) via the myriad computer net works. From home-run bulletin-boards to university networks, to governmental departments-most of these are hooked up to what is known as the InterNet. (Speaking of InterNet, you may want to read the item in Global News on how the Murdoch media empire is about to reach into ,the InterNet system. Seems like there is just no escape from junk media any more!) Now, Iwould like to bring your attention to some of the articles in this issue. Please, please, please read the article on Sonic Bloom. It is an article that will really excite you, even lif yoU have never grown a plant lin your Ufe. The interview with Ed Sopcak on CanCell is also incredible. We are going to fol low this one for a while, as Ibelieve it to be the medicinal direction of the future. Tne 'mad scientists' among yOLi will especially appreciate the article on John Searl and his anti-gravity craft. We are continuing our investigations into this and will also keep you posted. Speaking of keeping people posted, exactl'y one year ago was the issue which had the first story on Robert Adams and his free energy machine. In that year, Nexus has been contacted by hundreds and hundreds of people from all over the world, and, yes, quite a lot of people have now successfully duplicated the device based on the information we published, and are getting amazing results. In other words, there are now quite a few small-scale free energy machines rUflning sucGessfully out there, in the process of being made into large-scale devices. If you have shares in oil companies-get ready to sell soon! Ihave .left my mention of t'he Oxygen Therapy article as the Ilast item in the edito rial. This is ,to save you from reading a lengthy spiel about my outrage at ,the treat ment of oxygen therapies by the establishment media, the establishment health sys tem, afld the establishment AIDS groups. The media and the health sy~tem I could cop, being mere pawns of big business, but the AIDS groups weJe what shocked me - Inaively thought ther would want to find out for themselves about oxygen thera pies. But no, they towed the establis'hment line and lied even hard:er about oxygen therapies than the media and the doctors combined. Despite all this, everyone here at the Nexus office in Australia, plus everyone in the !Nexus office in USA, wishes everyone, everywhere a, hap,py' festive season and a prosperous New Year.

Recently at our local supermarket I noticed what I thought to be a new brand of herbal, fluoride-free toothpaste. It was sitting next to my usual brand, almost identical in colouring, wording and ,packaging to the fluoride-free one. I picked it up and was about to buy it but while at the checkout I started to read the very fine print. Lo and behold, it had exactly th,e same lev els of fluoride as the ordinary fluo ride toothpastes which are very prominently marked. I fmd this very dangerous. Those allergic to fluorides can suffer badly if they accidentally use this poison. Also, mothers trying to elirn.iJlate fluorides from lheir chil dren's toothp,astes could be easily deceived. This particular type of toothpaste has only recently appeared on the shelves since the Health Dept warning, and I have to I wonder if it is an attempt to try to I tap the market of those concerned by the warningi. If a product con tains fluoride, it needs to be very II prominently marked for safety. I have written to The' Investigators whose excellent expose of ~he problem appeared only week$ before the Health Dept's tardy surprise announce ment. Also, I have written to the appropriate authorities because of my concern that someone could easily suffer a severe allergic reac tion, and for the safety of our ,chil dren. The point of my letter is to warn consumers who want fluoride-free toothpaste. Make sUre the packet actually states fluoride-fre.e, or non-fluoride; check the small print, and if you also notice this sort of thing, get in touch with the above bodies and complain. Send in the empty packets, as I have, and remember, 'consumer beware'. Yours sincerely, Therese M., Port Macquarie, NSW.

ES: Ed Sopcak (pronounced 'Soap-check'). SS: Sovereign Scribe. SS: How did you get fIrst get involved' in his type of work? ES: I was working with free energy devices which is all about vibrational frequencies. During this time I had a friend named Don over at the University of Michigan who was at Saint Joseph's, who was a terminal cancer patient. They gave him six weeks to live. He got a hold of a product from Jim Sheridan called Entelev. He wok that while at S'n Joseph's and ended up without any cancer in six weeks. That gets one's attention. Now Jim Sheridan had started on the research project Entelev back in 1936. By 1947 he felt that he had a workable model that would cure about 38% of all cancer. He kept working. The more successful he got, the more unhappy the FDA got with him. So by the time 1984 came around he had had it; he quit and decided nobody wanted it and he just wasn't going to do it anymore. So this friend of mine asked me if I would make it for him. I said sure, get me the formulation and I would make it. So he did. Now Jim was looking at it from a chemical standpoint, having himself a degree in physical chemistry. I started looking at it {rom a standpoint ofbasic vibrational physics. So I made 'a few minor changes in the formulation based on vibrational physics. I made some and gave i~ to my friend. Then others heard about it who were ~rminal cancer patients and we gave it to them. This continued to grow. I've been at it for 10 years now. All cancer is an anaerobic cell that has mutated. Cancer is a single disease. With the application of En~lev, Jim took an anaerobic cell and pushed it back through primitive, which meant it went back to the amino acids the body used to crea~ the pro~in in the first place. Now everybody recognises that a cancer cell is an anaerobic cell. This is not news to anybody. The general attempt by people in cancer therapy is to take tham weakened anaer obic cell and make it stronger with vitamins or whatever, and try to push it back to being an aerobic cell. You can't do that. Jim recognised this and his view was, rather than to make the cell healthy, he decided to just get rid of it. So he worked with the blockages within the enzyme system or the respiratory sys~m and then he pushed the cell !back through primitive and ended up with the amino acids that the body uses to crea~ itself, and therefore the cancer no longer existed. SS: Is this related to the hydrogen peroxide approach of creating an oxygen-rich envi ronment whereby anaerobic cells can't function? ES: Technically, but thc first thing you must understand about hydrogen peroxide or these others is that nothing works chemically. Everything on the face of the Earth is elec tromagnetic vibrational frequency. Therefore, when you get into peroxide there's the assumption that since the formulation is H2~' that it will always break to H20 + oxygen and ,that is not true. It can also break: into 2 OH radicals and very often does. But if it works for you, take it. If it docsn't, don't. SS: So thc vibrationa~ changes brought about by CanCell, are these vibra'tions higher or lower? ES: It starts out with a very high vibration and ,it degenerates over a 12-hour period. In doing that, as it comes down, it matehes or gets into an interference pattern with viruses like the AIDS virus. It causes the virus to disassociate like the Memorex commercial with thc glass when someone hits the note and the glass shatters. Well that's what happens with the virus. SS: How does this rela~ with Rife's work? ES: This is probably 50 to 75 years past the Rife technologies. We are now in a posi tion on this planet where if anything plugs into a wall or uses a magnet to crea~ the fre quencies of the energy force, I would be suspect of it because the densities are too great. We're working with high and extremely subtle frequencies. These frequencies cannot be measured with the techndlogy we have today. 34-NEXUS DECEMBER 1993 - JANUARY 1994 27. SS: So did you continue and advance the work of Jim Ilot of free radicals. The free radicals affect the nucleic acids and Sheridan? will reproduce themselves in a damaged state. Free radicals are in ES: I made CanCell for 6 months 'before I ever met Jim. We've any partially hydrogenated things such as margarine, Crisco or all been friends ever since meeting and I have a great deal of respect the oils on the shelves. ~so most baked goods have partially for him. We actually established a frequency that was a little hydrogenated oill in them. This is the basic cause of an anaerobic above the frequency of oxygen. Not all oxygen has the same fre- cell. quency.

Protein digestion is a two- with a 6-ring organic compound and then he was manipulating the stage process in the.body. At the end of the fIrst stage of digestion organic rings from 6 to 5 to 3 and various ratios. As you do this, you will have a DNA chemical or frequency that will damage the every time you go from a 6- to a 5-ring compound, you increase nucleic acid, and unless you have an adequate supply of vitamin the vibrational frequency. So he was really using chemicals to B6 within the system you don't complete the digestion of protein. create a vibrational frequency in the water.

The vast Burragorang V;ney, south orKatoomba in the lllue Mountains of New SoUth Wales. Furthennore, all further mention of their myStery fate was soon lost in the wall of official silence that descended on the whole issue. The Burragorang-Kedumba valleys are not by any means the only places where mysterious late-night, or even daytime, goings on have been happening. Tourists looking out over the Grose Valley near Blackheath have reponed having seen strange lights which have appeared to land in the vatIey or else have hovered over the forests to rise ver tically into the sky. Murphy's Glen in the Blue Mountains National Park has been the scene of sgme unusual happenings. One night in ~ 977 a bush walker, Steve Burrows, was camping in the glen when he observed mysterious lights flying overhead to descend among the trees of nearby forest. However, from a variety of reports it would appear that many of these lights have been seen coming from the region of Jameison Valley, and therefore we may suppose that they originate from the alleged secret base in the Burragorang. On Th_ursday 10th July 1970, a Mr Phillips was standing on a lookout above Leura Cascades which overlopks Ithe Jameison Valley, when directly ahead of him there suddenly appeared a strange object of a brilliant, shining silver CGlour from behind Mount Solitary. The time was 5.'30 pm with a clear sky. The object, which was about 10 km away acrosS the valley, was judged by Mr Phillips to be 4 or 5 degrees east of due south and about the same angle above the horizon. The object emitted no noise. It was quite large, as big as a large aircraft, and appeared to Mr Phillips to be without any navigation 'fights whatever. The strange craft was shaped like a ball. The ball was a sphere, the top being joined to al cylln4er; the conical section between them appeared to follow an exponential curve. This strange object, after remaining motionless for half a minute after its appe_arance, s,uddenly moved off at a terrific speed, then, soaring upwards into the sky, disappeared from sight. About the same time lthat Mr PhiHips saw his UFO, another land quite spectacular UFO event too'k place in Katoomba which revived old memories of the occurrences thereabouts of the early DECEMBER 1993 - JANUARY 1994 19508. Dozens of people who happened to be standing outside their homes over a wide area between Leura to the east and Blackheath towards the west s-everal kilometres away, were witnesses to a brilliant orange-yellow glowing object which, coming from the south-that is from the Burragorang-Kedumba Valley area sailed across the sky so low that, as it n~ared the Great Western Highway near Katoomba hospitall, it came within a mere 200 feet of the ground. So brilliant was the glow from this object that the whole district seemed lit up by it. The object was too bright for anyone to dettx:t its shape. It was travelling slowly across the area and within a few minutes people at Blackheath saw it before the objeot gradually gained height, dis appearing nonhward. The official RAAF repon? You'll never guess. "The planet Venus was very brilliant that night!" Another strange UFO, although not as orilliant as that just men tioned, passed over Katoomba one night in 1970 going from nonh to south, and descending slowly into the Jameison Valley. The object appeared to 'coast' over the Jameison Valley farms un.til it appeared to vanish somewhere to the south. The object which was seen by some ohhe farm-hands was also seen by a good many Katoomba residents. It gave out a reddish light which emitted a small amount of glow over the houses 'as it began to descend towards the valley, and ,passed overhead a mere 30 fn above the houses just before entering the Jameison Valley.

At fIrst, the police may have thought the phone call a joke and taken no notice of it. However, after repeated calls, two offIcers were sent to the farm to investigate the matter. Within minutes the two constables anived in a paddy wagon. Driving up towards the pig sheds they alighted, hoping to see the object for themselves, but found nothing-the mysterious craft had vanished as silently as it had come. There the matter might have rested but it did not. The Eddellbuttel UFO report made the media and brought forth numez:- ous other eyewitnesses who had seen the same glowing object pass over Katoomba that night. One of these eyewitnesses was a farmer in the Megalong Valley directly below the CliffSC==,,., ::-", beyond which the " Eddellbuttel farm stands. " ..,.,n .. n.n ..' The farmer had been. "';' standing outside his house .;, when, from over the p,,,,,.,: cliffs, he detected a large, approximately 30 ft (10 m) wide, dark object silently descending slow- ly into the valley to land in a deserted field some distance from the farm- house. There it remained for a full 10 minutes as the r"me, watched. Then, ~ silently as before, the ;~:r mystery object rose into :;:~':~fH ~:...,ioy....~;..:. darkn.ess. The impression given by these events could imply that some- thing had been malfunctioning in the craft and its occupants, for it certainly was operated by some intelligence, had landed fIrst at the Edde).lbuttels', and then in the valley below to carry out emergency repairs. Whatever it was. the Eddellbuttel UFO was certainly not some errant Earth-based craft. One explanation which failed to hold water was that the object had been a malfunctioning helicopter whose crew had landed to repair. Beyond this the RAAF could offer no other convincing explanation. IfJ73 was also the year that I received the belated disclosure of Mr Anthony Look who, in the winter of 1958 at Blackheath, expe- rienced one of the most spectacular sightings ever witnessed on the Blue Mountains. Mr Look, while a workman of the Blue Mountains City Council, was walking into the Blackheath Council depot one July 1958 morning at 6.30 am. At that time of morning in winter, the sky was still dark although dawn was about to break. Mr Look was joined by several other workmates. As they stood there talk- ing in the yard of the depot, Mr look happened to glance up at the sky. There, directly above the depot and at least 10,000 feet above the ground, was what appeared to be an enormous circular craft. At this srage the other workmen also looked up as Mr Look drew their attention to the strange object. As the workmen were all early anivals at the depot there were no other witnesses to the strange visitor. Because the object remained stationary in the sky above, Mr Look and his mates were able to make a detailed description of the massive mystery craft. A ruler was produced and held up at arm's length to make a DECEMBER 1993 - JANUARY 1994 rough estimate of the object's size. It measured 130 cm in width, which implies the craft must have been of considerable size. The craft now began emitting a blinding white light which appeared to come from a row of lights arranged around the side of the craft, and Me Look was able to count at least 10 of these. The lights projected a glow which shone directly down within 50 ft (16.2 m) of the council yard. In fact, ithe glow from the craft appeared to light up the sur rounding town area. After spending a full 10 minutes hovering above the startled workmen, the craft suddenly rose upwards at a phenomenal speed to disappear into the clouds.
